That was the coldest day that we’ve been here! Why do I always manage to be at the beach when the ferocious winds are blowing?
Happy New Year to you, Celia! Glad to hear your Christmas was filled with family and fun!

Why,thank you, ma’am- I think so,too!
It is amazing how they look like men and yet I still see young boys in their faces. I love my men- but like the poet said, ‘the child is father to the man.” I look into my grandchildren’s faces and see the men they will become. I don’t seem to be able to stay within my own timeline.

Hi Brydie!
I love the beach at every time of the year!
It is so invigorating in the winter and rather wild- yes it does make you feel very alive and a little vulnerable.
I am warmed by your beach pictures- hope you feel cool looking at mine- In fact- you are a big part of why I posted them!
